+sodajerk Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 I have seen them at welding shops. It would fit in a hollow log better than an ammo can. Quote Link to comment
+rusty_tlc Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 (edited) Thats better. I saw those last week at the welding shop. Looks like it would work, I think they were a little pricey in the shop I was at though. OT Edit: Rock binders and Cruisers got rust in common, huh.

magellan315 Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 Hmm, interesting. I'll have to keep this in mind for the future. Quote Link to comment
+Criminal Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 I picked up one of those at the Harbor Freight Tool store in Tacoma; I think it was about $5 or so. I don’t see it on their website. Quote Link to comment
+hikemeister Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 Not bad, but I have been able to find ammo cans of about the same size for less than $5 at the local flea market. We most often try to reuse items that held other contents before they became caches. Quote Link to comment
martmann Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 (edited) I couldn't get to the link, but from the other posts, I'm guessing it's a welding rod container like this on: They paint up real nice (I used Eastwood plastic prep first). edit: Eastwood not Eastman.

inventorjg Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 What is the other device for? Quote Link to comment
+Navdog Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 Great containers. We have used one as a map cache, since it has a rubber seal, it is waterproof. Quote Link to comment
+Melrose Plant Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 What is the other device for? M-M? Minneapolis Moline? I thought they made tractors at one time. Quote Link to comment

+Red Clover Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 Now, Im not one of "those people" that sees a terrorist, bomb or asteroid headed toward earth all the time.. but I can see where a non cacher might be a bit concerned about what that looks like. But I think it rocks! We dont have much in the way of unusual cache containers in my area. Of course I'm now traveling 50+ miles one way to find new caches so I may see a bit more variation (thank god) Quote Link to comment
+DustyJacket Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 How about this for a unique cache container. (You'll need a zip lock though) Quote Link to comment
+SERG312 Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 Very gross skid marks! Quote Link to comment
+DustyJacket Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 Very gross skid marks! That's the idea. What geomuggle would plunder that cache? Quote Link to comment
adampierson Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 I would be more concerned someone throwing it away. Some cache diguises are just too good. Quote Link to comment

+bigredmed Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 Looks like fuze cans. You can get these from Cheaperthandirt.com. About the same size and have a screw on lid that seals. Quote Link to comment
